Description
The L129 Series Lube Level Swichgage
instrument is a combination lube level indi-
cating gage and adjustable low and high limit
switches. It provides protection against low
oil level or high level caused by overfill or
fuel or water seepage into the crankcase.
A 6-3/4 inch (171 mm) deep sight gauge
allows you check the condition and level of
your oil without shutting down the equipment.
Fingertip adjustable limit contacts, thru
4-7/8 inch (122 mm) range, make it simple to
set high and low limit contacts. If the float
touches the high or low limit contact, a normal-
ly open circuit will be completed which can
activate alarms and/or shutdown the equipment.
There are two models in the L129 Series:
L129 and L129CK1. The L129 model is
designed for grounded, low voltage electrical
systems. It features a one-wire-to-ground elec-
trical circuit. The L129CK1 was designed for
applications requiring a three-wire, above
ground electrical circuit. It features unground-
ed contacts and a conduit hub to protect
electrical wiring.
Options are available for both models.
A flow restrictor plug is available that restricts
oil flow from the crankcase to the L129 Series
switch and vice versa. It is typically used on
applications where the engine is not stationary
such as marine and mobile equipment.
The L129 Series Lube Level SWICHGAGE
®
,
when properly installed and maintained, can
monitor and protect your engines and pumps
from improper lubrication level, which can
result in extensive damage.
Applications
The L129 Series is recommended for engines
and pumps with larger crankcase capacity.
Although designed primarily for stationary
engines, the L129 Series is often used in
mobile applications such as marine, rail, and
some large off-highway trucks.
